so  scientifically  combined,  were  never  before  found  in  paints.  ” 


PROF.  L.  LANSZWEERT,  of  San  Francisco,  Cal.,  by  far  the 
ablest  Chemist  west  of  the  Rocky  Mountains,  writes  : — “  No  other 
paint  could  stand  the  severe  tests  I  have  subjected  this  to.  I  am 
confident  of  its  ultimately  superseding  the  use  of  all  other  paints.”

THE  AVERILL  PAINT  has  been  before  the  public  over  nineteen  years,  and  since 
its  first  introduction  has  been  constantly  growing  in  favor. 

It  has  been  thoroughly  tested  by  chemists,  and '  applied  on  over  ONE  MILLION 
residences  throughout  the  United -  States,  and  is  pronounced  by  all  who  have  used  it 
to  be  the  most 

BEAUTIFUL,  DURABLE  AND  ECONOMICAL 

Paint  for  either  Wood,  Iron,  Brick,  Stone  or  Plaster.  JVot  being  affected  by  the 
atmosphere,  it  is  suitable  for  all  climates.  IT  DOES  NOT  FADE  OR  CHALK  OFF,  but 
RETAINS  ITS  FRESHNESS  and  BRILLIANCY  for  many  years,  and  will  last  MUCH 
LONGER  than  the  best  Lead  and  Oil  mixed  in  the  old  way.  Its  convenient  form, 
superior  wearing  properties  and  great  beauty,  has  established  for  it  the  reputation 
of  being  the  BEST  PAINT  evei'  placed  before  the  public. 

IT  IS  TIE  OILY  THOROUGHLY  RELIABLE  MIXED  PAINT  MADE. 

It  works  easily,  and  any  one  can  apply  it.  DO  NOT  BE  DECEIVED  BY  LOW-PRICED 
PAINTS,  WHICH  ARE  INFERIOR  IN  QUALITY  AND  UNRELIABLE.  The  market  is 
flooded  with  worthless  paints.

-He  AVERILL  PAINT* 


submitting  this  book  to  our  friends  and  the  public ,  our  object  is  to  show  the  effect  of 

different  combinations  of  colors  on  the  exterior  of  buildings. 

Within  the  limited  space  at  our  command  we  are  only  able  to  give  a  few  Illustrations, 
sufficient,  however,  in  connection  with  our  Sample  Cards  and  Sample  Boards ,  to  convey  a  fair 
impression  of  the  effect  of  any  of  our  colors  when  applied. 

As  we  were  the  first  to  manufacture  and  introduce  a  Paint  ready  for  the  brush ,  we 
desire  very  briefly  to  refer  to  its  origin  and  its  influence  upon  the  Paint  Trade. 

About  twenty  years  ago  Mr.  I).  It.  AVERILL  conceived  the  idea  that  a  Paint  prepared 
ready  for  use  was  not  only  practicable ,  but  would  also  serve  as  a  valuable  contribution  to  the 
economic  arts.  Mr.  Averill,  being  a  practical  chemist,  with  a  large  experience  in  the  manu¬ 
facture  and  manipulation  of  colors,  began  a  series  of  experiments  with  a  view  of  producing 
a  practical  Mixed  Paint ,  which  resulted  in  what  is  now  known  throughout  the  country  as 
the  “AVERILL  PAINT  A 

The  first  effort  made  to  introduce  it  to  the  Trade  was  met  by  violent  and  virulent  oppo¬ 
sition  on  the  part  of  Paint  Manufacturers  and  Painters.  Its  advantages,  however,  in  the 
mailer  of  convenience,  together  with  its  superiority  in  point  of  durability,  soon  became 
apparent,  and  the  formidable  opposition  organized '  to  arrest  its  introduction  yielded 
from  necessity  before  convincing  evidence.  Wherever  used  it  produced  the  most  satis¬ 
factory  results,  and  within  a  brief  period'  found  its  way  to  nearly  every  town  of  any 
importance  within  the  limits  of  our  country.  Manufacturers  of  the  old  style  of  Paints, 
realizing  that  the  “ new  idea  ”  was  taking,  and  that  the  art  of  producing  Paint  was  not 
altogether  unprogressive,  found  it  expedient  to  abandon  their  opposition  to  Mixed  Paint, 
and  at  once  began  manufacturing  it;  and ',  in  face  of  their  former  assertions  of  its  worth¬ 
lessness ,  urged '  it  upon  the  public  with  all  the  vehemence  of  new  converts.  They  did,  not, 
however,  cease  their  attacks  upon  the  “AVERILL.”  They  could,  not  successfully  oppose  the 
introduction  of  Prepared  Paints,  but  in  order  to  introduce  their  own  products,  and  because  of 
the  unparalleled  success  of  the  “AVERILL,”  and  the  favor  with  which  it  was  regarded  by  the 
public ,  they  were  not  specially  conscientious  concerning  the,  means  they  employed  to  injure 


0lir  business.  Pamphlets  containing  mean  insinuations  were  written  and  extensively  circu¬ 
lated;  salesmen  were  surcharged  with  vile  epithets  and  slurs  to  be  exploded  on  every 
favorable  opportunity ,  until  from  temporary  exhaustion  they  have  called  a  halt  foi 
reinforcements.  While  it  is  not  agreeable  to  our  notion  of  mercantile  dignity  to  refer 
disparagingly  to  our  competitors  or  their  products ,  we  are  nevertheless  constrained \  to  say 
that  the  course  pursued  by  many  manufacturers  in  characterizing  the  AT  PRILL”  has 
clearly  demonstrated  the  utter  littleness  of  human  nature  as  found'  in  the  Paint  Trade. 
The  fact  that  the  AVLRILL  PAINT  has  been  on  the  market  for  nearly  twenty  years,  being 
more  extensively  used  than  any  other  bi'and  of  Mixed  Paint ,  and  with  a -  constantly 
increasing  demand,  ought  to  be,  in  connection  with  our  ample  guarantee,  convincing 
proof  of  its  superiority . 


The  growing  desire  of  the  American  people  to  enhance  the  attractions  of  home  in  the 
way  of  exterior  finish  is  quite  apparent.  To  attain  that  which  is  most  beautiful ,  and  at 
the  same  time  the  most  durable,  is  the  legitimate  object  of  those  who  study  the  art  of 
exterior  Painting. 


The  advances  made  in  this  respect  since  the  introduction  of  the  A  VERILL  PAINT  are 
remarkable.  Twenty  years  ago  it  was  difficult  to  find  a  country  house  attractively  Painted, 
the  prevailing  style  being  White  with  Green  blinds ;  now  many  of  our  country  houses  are 
models  of  art  and  harmony  as  exhibited  in  the  selection  and  arrangement  of  colors.  This 
improvement  has  been  accomplished  through  the  medium  of  Sample  Cards— first  introduced 
by  us— showing  a  variety  of  colors  and  shades,  from  which  the  house  owner  was  enabled  to 
study  the  effect  of  combinations,  and  from  which  he  could  make  such  selections  as  his 
taste  approved.  The  House  Painter  has  also,  through  the  opportunity  thus  afforded 
improved  his  taste  and  been  lifted  out  of  the  rut  of  prejudice  and  old-fashioned  notions. 


We  desire  to  say,  in  conclusion,  in  connection  with  our  remarks  referring  to  our 
competitors,  that  it  was  with  extreme  reluctance  we  made  any  reference  to  their  attacks. 
They  have  been  so  presistent,  however ,  in  their  unfair  methods,  that  we  deemed  it  but  justice 
to  ourselves  to  say  what  we  have.  As  a  rule,  ive  do  not  approve  of  noticing  any  uncompli¬ 
mentary  remarks  concerning  our  goods,  believing  the  public  will  not  be  influenced  by 
such  considerations.

WEIGHT  OF  PAINT. 


OME  of  our  competitors  in  the  manufacture  of  Mixed  Paint  are  unceasing  in  their  attacks  upon  our 


goods,  using  among  other  arguments  the  fact  that  our  product  is  lighter  in  weight  than  that  made 
by  them.  This  we  concede.  This  argument,  however,  is  either  employed  through  ignorance  or  from  a 
malicious  desire  to  injure  us. 

Paint  should  not  he  heavy  to  produce  a  durable  job.  The  opposite  of  this  is  true.  It  should  be  light 
in  weight,  containing  only  sufficient  pigment  to  cover  the  surface,  with  as  large  a  quantity  of  Oil  as  possible. 
The  durable  or  wearing  element  of  Paint  is  Linseed  Oil.  Pigments,  except  when  in  combination  with  Oil  for 
painting  purposes,  possess  no  durability,  and  are  used  only  to  cover  and  beautify  the  surface  ;  the  Oil  is  to  hold 
them,  and  constitutes  the  wearing  and  enduring  property.  Paint  is  readily  made  heavy  by  the  use  of  a  cheap 
pigment  called  “Barytes,”  and  the  object  of  its  use  is  to  deceive  the  purchaser  and  cheapen  the  product. 
This  pigment  is  largely  used  as  an  adulterant ,  particularly  by  those  most  extravagant  in  their  talk  about 
heavy  Paint  and  pure  Paint,  and  if  their  goods  are  analyzed,  they  will  be  found  to  contain  a  large  percentage 
of  this  useless  and  deleterious  stuff. 

Should  any  of  our  customers  desire  to  have  what  is  called  a  “heavy  Paint,”  we  will  cheerfully  manu¬ 
facture  it  for  them,  and  at  a  less  price  than  we  charge  for  the  “  AVERILL,”  provided  they  will  order  a 
sufficient  quantity ;  but  we  will  not  guarantee  it  equal  in  quality  for  reasons  before  stated. 

We  simply  desire  to  say  to  our  friends,  and  to  those  who  may  be  disposed  to  use  our  Paint :  First ,  that 
we  guarantee  our  goods  to  be  equal,  if  not  superior,  to  any  Paint  made.  Next ,  that  manufacturers  who  rely 
for  the  sale  of  their  products  upon  their  capacity  to  disparage  the  goods  of  their  competitors  are  neither 
deserving  of  respect  or  confidence. 

Respectfully, 

SIKEEUXjDE'Y'  BROTHERS.

72/  offering  to  our  friends  the  accompanying  Illustrations ,  we  have  selected  and 
arranged  the  colors  in  such  combinations  as,  in  our  opinion,  are  best  calculated 
to  favorably  impress  the  public,  and  have  in  most  instances  employed  only  new, 
popular  and  fashionable  tints. 

In  doing  so  we  are  prompted  by  the  demand  for  a  change  from  the  usual 
07'  common  colors  ordinarily  used  for  body  and  trimming,  and.  are  simply 
following  the  present  taste  in  House  Painting.  Fashions  change  in  all  things , 
and  to  conform  to  the  various  changes  in  taste  is  the  necessity  of  both  the  Manu¬ 
facturer  and  Dealer.  The  beauty  and  attractiveness  of  a  house  depends  largely 
upon  the  colors  selected  for  Painting,  and  the  study  in  this  art,  together  with 
the  marhed  improvement  in  Architectural  design  of  external  construction  dining 
the  past  few  years,  calls  for  a  departure  from  the  old  style  of  Painting,  and 
hare  resulted,  in  an  improved  taste  in  the  selection  of  colors  suitable  and 
appropriate  to  the  design  of  the  structure.

3.  Stir  the  Paint  thoroughly  before  using. 

4.  Put  the  Paint  on  smoothly  with  as  little  rubbing  as  possible,  flowing  it  on  like  varnish.

Its  convenience  and  utility  will  be  appreciated  when  it  is  considered  tliat 

•****»&  ANY  HOUSEKEEPER 

can  apply  it,  without  the  aid  of  skilled  labor,  and  at  a  moderate  cost. 


ALiiBASTirrE 

Is  an  article  designed  for  Walls  and  Ceilings,  and  is  rapidly  superseding  all  preparations  usually  employed 
for  this  purpose.  The  objections  to  the  use  of  Whitewash  and  the  ordinary  Kalsomine,  are  so  well  known, 
that  any  reference  to  the  subject  is  almost  unnecessary. 

AL  ABA  STINE  is  a  valuable  discovery.  It  constitutes  a  permanent  finish  for  Walls,  assimilating 
with  the  plaster,  and  will  not  rub  off.  It  does  not  deteriorate  by  age;  in  this  respect  it  is  unlike  all  other 
preparations  of  a  similar  character. 

ALABASTINE  is  a  disinfectant ,  and  renders  apartments  healthful. 

It  is  the  only  natural  and  durable  material  with  which  to  finish  Walls  and  Ceilings. 

It  is  cheaper  than  Kalsomine;  works  easier,  and  may  be  applied  by  anyone.  After  cleaning,  no  sizing 
or  other  preparation  for  the  Walls  is  necessary,  and  one  coat  can  be  applied  upon  another  as  soon  as  dry. 

It  is  whiter  than  any  other  material,  and  the  tints  are  more  clear  and  more  delicate.  The  White  will 
not  turn  yellow ,  nor  the  tints  fade. 

Cracks  in  Walls  can  be  easily  filled  with  the  brush  and  a  little  thick  ALABASTINE,  while 
applying  the  first  coat.  This  cannot  be  done  with  Kalsomine. 

AEABASTINE  can  be  applied  over  old  Kalsomine  or  Whitewash,  which,  however,  should  be  washed 

or  scraped  off,  to  insure  a  first-class  job. 

It  is  the  most  suitable  article  for  using  over  Wall  Paper,  or  soiled  painted  Walls. 

W7 ood  Ceilings,  whether  painted  or  not,  can  be  made  whiter  with  one  coat  of  ALABASTINE  than 
with  three  coats  of  Lead  or  Zinc.
